Obama and George Stephanopoulos were talking about the selection of First Dog this morning on ABC's This Week. Now, Obama's family hasn't made a decision yet, but they've narrowed it down to two breeds.

"They seem to have narrowed it down to a Labradoodle or a Portuguese water hound," he said.

No Joe Biden

And unlike his vice president -- who raised the ire of animal rights activists everywhere when he purchased a dog from a breeder -- Obama hasn't flip-flopped. He's always said he would get a pound puppy.

"We're now going to start looking at shelters to see when one of those dogs might come up," Obama said.
